Legal matters with Nthabiseng Dubazana
Loading player...
On Point of View with Nthabiseng Dubazana, we unpacked three major legal rulings shaping South Africa’s justice landscape. First, we looked at a case where a former advocate faced claims of unauthorised legal work but was cleared after the court found his services were legitimate commercial transactions. Then, we examined the dismissal of a Mtubatuba municipal official who had secured a senior ICT post without the required qualifications, a decision the court upheld as fair given broader evidence of corruption. Finally, we discussed the growing controversy around trust account advocates, with a recent judgment reaffirming that only attorneys — not advocates — may prosecute Road Accident Fund claims. These cases highlight the ongoing tension between professional accountability, governance failures, and the boundaries of lawful legal practice.
